2. When attaching the antenna, observe the polarisation setting to be
determined under point 5.6 and turn the antenna support by the
appropriate number of degrees. For this, note the direction (looking
toward the satellite, "+" to the right and "-" and to the left). The chart
for the polarisation setting is on the front of the fl at surface of the
installation support where the antenna and the support are screwed
together (see the picture below on the right).
3. Now attach the antenna to the support using the four supplied screws
(see picture above on the right).
Insert two screws through the curved long holes and into the thread of
the counterpiece and hand-tighten them.
4. With the remaining two screws, proceed in the same way from the
opposite side.
5. Use the enclosed hexagon socket wrench to tighten the screws.
First, tighten the screws slightly by gripping the wrench at the
short end.
6. Then grip the wrench at the long end and tighten the screws
by approx. 1/4 to 1/2 turns.
The screw-tightening torque now corresponds to approx.
6 to 7 Nm.
Continue with point 6 of the instructions for use.
5.5 Ground installation
5.5.1 Attaching the installation support on the ground
Tip: When attaching the installation support to the ground, ensure that there is suffi cient distance between the
rear side of the antenna and any walls in order to avoid hitting walls when using the required elevation
angle in the antenna (on the rear side, the antenna may extend beyond the installation support depending
on the required elevation angle, see 3.3). In addition, when performing ground installation, observe the
azimuth setting required by the antenna (see azimuth/elevation table on pages 66-69 and the picture below)
so that the antenna later only needs to be minimally horizontally realigned.
Before attaching the installation support for the antenna, ensure
that the installation site you have selected offers suffi cient
purchase for mounting the antenna.
Ensure that the "THIS SIDE UP" inscription on the
installation support is pointing towards the side facing away
from the satellite.
Then mount the enclosed installation support for the antenna
on the ground using the appropriate mounting supplies, e.g.
4 x screws Ø 6 mm and dowels (not included in the delivery).
5.5.2 Setting the polarisation for ground installation
The polarisation setting of the antenna should be performed before installation (the weight of the antenna must
not then be supported simultaneously). Perform the setting as follows for the polarisation setting degree you have
determined under 5.6.
